Abstract
Wastewater treatment is a process, which is being done on the wastewater to change its quality to be within the required specifications of water discharged to the surface waterway or water used for different purposes. In the present study, the performance of the oxidation ditch system related to Al-Muamirah wastewater treatment plant in Hilla city, province of Babylon, Iraq, in removing the pollutant of municipal were evaluated. The samples were taken from input wastewater and output treated water of the plant to measure the pollutant parameters. These parameters are the Biochemical Oxygen Demand (BOD5
), Chemical Oxygen Demand (COD), Total Suspended Solids (TSS), Ammonia (NH3
), Phosphorus (P04
), and the quantitative measure of the acidity or basicity (pH). Data were analyzed by using Excel software. The results show that the efficiency of removal of BOD
5, COD, TSS, NH3
and P04
was 91%, 78%, 93%, 69% and 68%, respectively on a monthly basis. Accordingly, it can be recommended that the Al-Muamirah wastewater treatment plant has an acceptable efficiency of wastewater treatment and producing water in accordance with Iraqi environmental standards of water discharged to the surface water or water of other uses.
